p=140 feet
\n" ); document.write( "x=width
\n" ); document.write( "6x=length\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x+x+6x+6x=140\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "14x=140\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "14x/14=140/14\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x=10\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The width is 10 feet and the length is 6x so 6(10) which is 60 feet.
\n" ); document.write( "
